Split-screen writes: "Review the sheer number of quality franchises Sony created over the past 7 years. Ratchet and Clank, Jak and Daxter, Sly Cooper, God of War, Gran Turismo, Wipeout, Killzone, Resistance; the products of Team ICO, White Knight Chronicles (and products of Level-5 before they turned self-publisher), Uncharted and now LittleBigPlanet. Be it timely series or new efforts, Sony Computer Entertainment has always stayed one step ahead of its competition.
"And several steps ahead of Microsoft Game Studios."
Times are changing, and these games would have never been made in today's climate.
Every single time someone uses this phrase whether it's music, movies, books, comics, video games, etc it's always the same claim.
The ubiquitous "they" won't allow it to be made. And every decade these claims are made the claimant completely ignores all the "offensive" material that is published when the claim is made.
In ten years, you can write a new article about how you can't make games like Helldivers 2, Resident Evil VIII, Mortal Kombat I, Dragon's Dogma 2, Alan Wake 2 etc etc etc any more.
Dead Island: "The early PC version of the zombie game swapped the playable character Purna’s Gender Wars skill with a prototype name, which shouldn’t be mentioned directly. The skill name made fun of both Purna as a character and feminists."
"Feminist Whore" lmao
ill add one more to the list.
drakengard 1.
its ridiculous tho, especially since they'd still be able to find their place in alot of places in the world. except america of course ha. and maybe Australia.
ppl are so sensitive these days. ha. but it is what it is.
They're not offensive.
And we need another Fat Princess. Fantastic little game!
Some people just have no sense of humour if this sort of thing offends them. They need to lighten up and stop taking themselves so seriously.
Isaac Clarke of Dead Space fame has appeared in many games, both as a playable character and an Easter Egg. Have you played them all?
Alex DS. from Link Cable Gaming writes: "Is the PlayStation 3 retro? This is a surprisingly hard question to answer as the system definitely has the age to be considered retro, having launched in 2006, over 15 years ago now. But with it being home to so many massive games, many of which still hold up today and in fact were released for the PlayStation 4 when that console was released, make the PS3 a retro console that doesn’t feel retro."
Typically, the term retro is given to items which are at least 20 years old (but not yet 40 years old).
Quick google search
No the PS3 is not yet a retro console. But if you're gonna put 1 game from a series in this list, then LBP2 should be there instead of the original, Motorstorm PR is also an overall better game than the 1st game and to put Tools of Destruction over A Crack in Time is a blasphemy when ACiT is the best game in the series.
.
FYI: wipeout was 95 and Gran turismo was...around that time. The article does say that Halo and Gears are -sales wise- much the biggest things in gaming and Forza and fable 2 are pretty much up there in their genres. But yes, the list does dwindle, unfavourably, In my opinion.
Edit: Man I forgot about rare.
nintendo is better than sony.
what a dumb story.
But, but, but....HALO 2.5!!!!!!!!
Lmao are you serious with this article......the title has more depth then the article.....its basically posts some bias opinions and a lot of obvious things that people already know...
WoWzers............ lol thanks for stating some obvious points and some stupid ones weooo
